Do you run a vacation home rental business or at the verge of just starting off? If earning through making guests happy and comfortable is what you are looking for, then it is the right business for you.
Despite knowing that running such a facility may be a tough job, you can ease through every single day without a problem with the right team or management skills.
Being the property manager, it is your task to make sure that you will have the best team to back you up and help you run the business. To get everything and everyone into place, you should begin by hiring your prospect management team. You can decide, whether or not it is you who will sit on the other end of the table to do the interview. If not, put someone whom you can trust and who knows your business as much as you do. This will ensure that you will be getting the right people for the job.
Once you have chosen the people to be part of your management, train them and give them tasks that will get each one busy and learning. To regulate their work progress, assign tasks which they should accomplish each day, such as making sure all rooms are clean and so forth. Through this, you will see who are trying to make ends meet and are making guests happy.
Here are some tasks that you can have your team members doing to keep plenty of guests coming:
- Filling Vacancies
- Marketing & Sales
- Screening
- On-boarding
- Collections
- Processing Work Orders
- Lease Renewal
- Tenant Retention Programs
- Move Outs & Turnovers
- Business Development
When everything is in place and the staff are doing their jobs, filling-in a property manager's role will be a breeze. All you will need to do is to keep your tenants happy and paying.
